Chapter 510: Speculation

"Your Majesty, this is not allowed." Zhao Cheng hurriedly opened his mouth to stop it, and even Sima Yue followed.

Su Xuanyong's temporary suspension caught them off guard, as the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot, at this time, instead of chasing, but giving half an hour to breathe, who knows if the next half an hour, Wenxuan and these people will be engaged in this nonsense with Su Qi'an again.

If this is the case, how will this questioning proceed?

This is not only the voice of Zhao Cheng and Sima Yue, but also represents a group of officials from the six ministries.

Su Xuanyong frowned, and said coldly, "The widow said, the widow is tired, you don't understand the words? I still have an opinion on the words of the widow."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Cheng, Sima Yue and other officials were all shocked in their hearts, and everyone could hear that their majesty was a little angry.

Without waiting for a few people to explain, Zheng Yuan hurriedly said, "Your Majesty's intentions, don't you know? Your Majesty feels sorry for you, and deliberately gave you time to rest, and it's not good to be thankful, what nonsense is there here, I think you really want to have a good rest."

Zheng Yuan's appearance made Zhao Cheng and these officials react quickly, and hurriedly knelt down and bowed to Su Xuanyong, expressing his guilt. Thank you Su Xuanyong for your love.

Zheng Yuan's words somewhat dissipated some of the anger in Su Xuanyong's heart, he nodded, didn't say anything, and with the support of the two princes, he slowly walked down the dragon platform and entered the side lying on the right to rest.

Everyone in the hall saluted respectfully, and when Su Xuanyong left, there was a tense atmosphere in the hall, and then they were more relaxed.

Zhao Cheng, Sima Yue and other officials got up, did not quarrel with Su Qi'an and Wen Xuan, but just looked at Su Qi'an coldly, and then left the hall under the leadership of Zheng Yuan.

Before leaving, many officials looked at Su Qi'an with a kind of coldness, which felt like saying that this time to temporarily let him go, it was His Majesty's mercy that he got half an hour's respite.

After half an hour, the next thing is Su Qi'an's death.

For this threat, Su Qi'an didn't care, and even looked amused.

These so-called important ministers of the court seem to be nothing more than that, don't they just rely on Su Xuanyong's support, if they really fight hard, Su Qi'an promises that they will all be pulled off by him one by one.

With the departure of many officials, only Su Qi'an, Wen Xuan and others remained in this hall.

So they can be a little more casual and not as tight as they were just now.

Su Qi'an turned around, bowed to the four great Confucians beside Wen Xuan, and thanked several people for their assistance.

At this time, the one who stood up for him, even if he was entrusted by Wenxuan, took a big risk.

Several Confucians looked at Su Qi'an's bowing actions, waved their hands casually, looked indifferent, and spoke.

"Harm, Qi An, you don't have to be so polite," you are originally a student of my Hanlin Academy, and it is our responsibility to protect your safety, besides, you are the personal inheritance of Wenxuan, just rely on this, I will come forward to say anything."

"That's it, I believe in Wenxuan's vision, and what you did in Kyoto, the old man also heard about it, it is indeed a rare talent, how can such a talent be sucked by these garbage things."

"Yes, these officials and princes, that is, bullying the weak and fearing the hard, there is no good thing, if the old man Chu is still there, can it still be their turn to discuss the guilt in the court? It's ridiculous, a bunch of clowns jumping off the beam."

The words of several great Confucians were amazing, which made Su Qi'an sigh for a while, and it was indeed shocking enough to be able to say such words from the mouths of these people.

But when I think about it, these people, all of whom are about seventy or eighty years old, are pursuing a thoughtful and casual mind.

Every sentence he said came from the heart, and he would not hide it at all, and he had read the sage books for many years, and he paid attention to a straightforward one.

It is precisely because of this kind of desirelessness and lack of desire, in all fairness, that Su Xuanyong is so tolerant of these people, and senior Confucians should be like this, and this freedom is also worth learning from Su Qi'an.

After a few great Confucians finished speaking, Wen Xuan said, "Qi An, there are these people

It's not so easy for Zhao Cheng to discuss your guilt, but it's not them that the old man is worried about, but Your Majesty."

"You also know that no matter what the direction of the court's judgment on the crime, only Your Majesty will make a final decision, and Your Majesty has not shown any favor for us in the current situation."

"Next, Zhao Cheng and they will definitely retreat into advance, not insisting on convicting you with the three major crimes, they will definitely make a fuss about you killing the two state pastors, no matter what you say, this is a fact after all, after all, it is not in line with the law of Da Liang, once this crime is convicted, it will definitely come step by step, and at that time, Your Majesty is likely to agree with them, this is the real trouble."

What Wenxuan said almost hit the nail on the head, and Su Qi'an and several Confucians could see that this method was high and the most secure way.

This is what Wenxuan has been worried about, even now, they have no way to break this game.

Compared with Wen Xuan's worries, Su Qi'an's expression was calm, he was not in a hurry, and looked at Wen Xuan.

"Teachers, seniors, your worries, students understand, please rest assured, students are not people who sit still, if they really want to do this, it is exactly what I want."

When Su Qi'an said this, Wen Xuan was a little surprised, but he quickly reacted, looking at the smile on the corner of Su Qi'an's mouth, as if he had guessed something.

There was a bit of shock in his flashing eyes, but he didn't dare to be sure and hesitated.

"Qi An, do you mean?"

Su Qi'an nodded with a smile and said with a meaningful smile, "Teacher, you just wait for a good show."

At this time, the officials who had already left the main hall, some of them rested in the special rest area, and some went to the toilet or moved their muscles.

The age is placed there, and the hall has been standing for a long time, coupled with the great Confucians such as Wenxuan, it consumes energy and energy, but it is to rest.

But as time passed, no one noticed that it was in a room in the rest area.

Unconsciously, Zheng Yuan, Sima Yue, Zhao Cheng, and two or three of the six Shangshu gathered together.

They did not look very good, and they talked in low voices, during which several people left the room every once in a while, and then other officials entered one after another.

The purpose of doing this is naturally to prevent being discovered by people with intentions, thinking that they are gathering crowds to collude, after all, this is an imperial city, and it is better to be cautious.

Among the people in this circle, Zhao Cheng was the first to speak, he did not accuse Zheng Yuan, did not express his opinion, on the contrary, expressed his gratitude to Zheng Yuan for his help several times.

Especially before leaving the palace at the end, if there was no Zheng Yuan, they would probably be punished.

After a simple polite gratitude, Zhao Cheng said, "Lord Zaifu, colleagues, the failure to handle Su Qi'an this time is due to our lack of preparation, but the old man is most worried now not about Wenxuan's support, but His Majesty's attitude."

"That's right, Zhao Guogong is right, originally the court discussed the crime, it was possible to speak freely, although we were deflated for a while just now, but we still had the upper hand, but Your Majesty's sudden suspension makes me very worried about Your Majesty's attitude, if Your Majesty is on Su Qi'an's side, won't our preparations be in vain?"

This time it was Sima Yue who spoke, and his words were also full of deep worry.

The officials gathered around also expressed their concerns.

This is a knot that they can't get around, after all, everything is to put Su Qi to death, but if His Majesty supports Su Qi'an's attitude today, then what they do is not on the opposite side of Su Xuanyong, which is not a good thing for them.

Zheng Yuan saw everyone's worries in his eyes, he was silent for a while, and finally spoke.

"You don't have to be so nervous, Your Majesty must have a pity for Su Qi'an, but don't forget, the state pastors of Jiao and Xizhou died in the hands of Su Qi'an, no matter how you justify this, it is a fact that cannot be erased, just by virtue of this, it is enough to convict Su Qi'an of a serious crime."

"If Your Majesty insists on blindly sheltering, wouldn't you be chilled if you were to be a local governor? Even if you regret your talents, you can completely chill the hearts below, can Your Majesty's position sit safely?

"Don't forget, today's Da Liang is not the vitality of the beginning of the founding of the country, just now, Su Qi'an wanted to pull me to the same end, but what is Your Majesty's final decision, don't you see it clearly?"

"As long as we don't let go of the facts that Su Qi'an did, even if Your Majesty has the heart to protect you, you will definitely not dare to be enemies with all the officials of Da Liang such as me, with this layer of protection, I don't know what you are still afraid of?"

Zheng Yuan's words instantly erased the worries in everyone's hearts, like a ray of sunshine, directly dissipating the darkness in their hearts.

Ahead is no longer cloudy, but clear and bright.

"yes, Jung Jae-fu is right, why didn't I think of it."

"It's worthy of Zheng Jaefu, it's really a sentence that woke up the dreamer, I understand."

"Everything, do as Zaisuke says."

Everyone suddenly regained their confidence in their hearts, as if they had found their respective goals, arched their hands at Zheng Yuan, and left the room in turn.

With his head raised and his chest high, he returned to the outside of the main hall with great confidence, moved his body, and quietly waited for the beginning of the court discussion.

Half an hour passed, in the blink of an eye, under the reading of a father-in-law, a group of state officials, with confidence on their faces, strode towards the hall, it felt like Su Qi'an had become a piece of meat in their hands, no matter what, they couldn't escape the palm of their hands.

As the state officials entered the hall one after another, Zheng Yuan was also the last one to walk towards the main hall.

When passing by a few attendants, Zheng Yuan's hand suddenly had an extra paper ball.

Zheng Yuan remained silent, and when he sneezed and covered his face with a wide sleeved robe, he opened the paper ball, and his gaze quickly swept over, and his originally calm and relaxed face changed in an instant.

Without any hesitation, he turned around and left, and the father-in-law at the door saw this scene and hurriedly shouted, "Zheng Jaefu, Zheng Zaifu, you have made a mistake, and the court has begun to discuss the crime."

Zheng Yuan covered his stomach, with a painful look on his face, and looked pleading to his father-in-law at the door.

"Father-in-law, please talk to Your Majesty, just say that the old minister has a bad stomach and is not feeling well, and if he wants to go to the toilet for a while, he will be delayed for about a quarter of an hour, I hope you will forgive me."

Saying that, Zheng Yuan panicked, twisted his body, and quickly ran towards the toilet, looking at this scene, his father-in-law could only shake his head helplessly, and then prepared to inform Su Xuanyong of Zheng Yuan's words.
